Then, I clicked the mouse button and try bring up the root menu again, the pop-up root menu won't come up. -After I killed the xterm by clicking the upper left corner, all text within the windows are gone, but the window stays. No matter what I did, it won't go away. My question: Is Motif1.1.3 works with FreeX86? since FreeX is based on X11R5. Kwan Are you running Motif on 386BSD? I assume you've done the port yourself. People have had success using Motif with XFree86 on SVR4. I haven't tried it on SVR3 (lacking the libraries). I would be strongly suspect of a port of Motif to 386BSD considering the problems one finds when porting it to SunOS. -Jim. -- *** *** *** James Tsillas jtsilla@damon.ccs.northeastern.edu *** *** "He is after me.
